590.1 | What's happening | PLOUGH::KINZELMAN | Paul Kinzelman | Thu Jul 23 1992 17:59 | 24 |
| I just spoke to Chuck and he says the following is true...
The Special products coordinator is leaving because she is 8 months
pregnant. She wishes to stay home with the new addition to her family. :-)
The "lending director" (actually Assistant VP of lending) has decided to
take a position with a mortgage company and will leave in mid August.
The VP of operations and VP of lending have announced that they will resign
and may do so tomorrow.
There will be no immediate nor long term problem with these changes of
personnel... to the level of service nor to the financial health of the
credit union.
There will be a board meeting next week and I'm sure the topic will be
discussed at that meeting.
Sorry I can't publish more details, but due to legal restrictions and for
the benefit of the company and the individual no organization may comment on
personnel issues like why somebody left, etc.
As the positions are filled, I can post the person filling the position
in the notes file.

590.3 | You're right | PLOUGH::KINZELMAN | Paul Kinzelman | Thu Jul 23 1992 18:57 | 3 |
| Sorry, I guess that is inconsistent. That was a reason which didn't occur
to me would cause a problem if we published it. Perhaps for consistency's
sake I should not have.

A refreshing change!
Personnel issues ought to be handled little like the US policy
on the presence of nuclear weapons - "We will neither confirm nor
deny". Sure, usually it isn't a problem to state the reason, as
in the case where the employee left because of a pregnancy, but
were the reason should remain private, or in cases where you
just don't know (maybe the employee doesn't say, or doesn't
tell you the real reason) you have to say nothing, and saying
something sometimes, and nothing other times, highlights
the times when you can't say anything...

590.5 | Not a change for me! :-) | PLOUGH::KINZELMAN | Paul Kinzelman | Fri Jul 24 1992 10:58 | 7 |
| I've got lots of practice admitting mistakes - I make so many of them! :-)
Being on the board and not being able to speak my mind publically on
everything is quite a change for me as I mentioned in note 560. There
will be a few rough edges. I hope to supply enough information about
things that I can talk about so that you will be able to trust me when
I am not forthcoming with other information that I can't talk about.

590.6 | Just a little thanks, Paul | LEDS::SIMARD | just in time..... | Fri Jul 24 1992 12:00 | 6 |
| With all the pressure this file tries to put on you, I for one want to
thank you and say you're doing a fine good job with all your
interactions.

Good plan. Implementation looks pretty good from here...

| If an employee makes a public statement of why they are leaving, it seems
ok to me for the organization to repeat it if they wish. Digital does
that too, e.g. publicizing Ken's stated reasons for retiring. So in this
particular case, I don't see any harm done -- although in future it's a
good idea (if it wasn't done this time) to make sure the employee's reason
really is public. Being eight months pregnant is pretty obvious, and is
pretty obviously a reason for leaving, but who knows, maybe she didn't want
the fact spread widely to people she doesn't know and doesn't work with.
Keep up the good work, Paul, and thanks for being concerned about the fine
details of fairness and accuracy.
